what is the correct way of using scheme unicode chars in LilyPond?
(display #\©) or (display #\u00a9) don't work (both do in
DrScheme).
It can't be the file encoding because (display ©) works.
\char ##x00a9

Ok. Though the crash course is too long. One would never read it to the bottom.

The standard solution to all such compatibility problems is to run the
file through convert-ly, to automatically update the syntax.
(Just remember to specify \version 2.10.0 or something like that in
the file header, so that convert-ly knows what to do.)

Hi Mats,
The more philosophical question is what you mean by natural note

since you still want the spacing to be wide enough to avoid
collisions between the syllables.

1. Divide the span into spacable
Unfortunately, I have never been able to get convert-ly to work. It's

Hi Mats,
In the (first measure of the) example I gave, I kind of did the

1. Divide the span into spacable sections -- here, two half-notes.
2. Determine the width of each spaceable section by the total
natural width of the lyrics within the section.
3. Evenly spread the notes
